  • Patent number: 11900045
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for converting a rich text document into an active document suitable for consumption on a particular device system, or operating system by human or machine. The system comprises a server including a non-transitory non-volatile storage medium. The non-transitory non-volatile storage medium is adapted to store at least rich text documents and active documents that have been converted from a rich text document format into an active document format. The server is adapted to carry out the steps of: scanning and parsing the rich text document to extract structural elements and contents; scanning and parsing the rich text document to extract embedded metadata; connecting structural elements and contents with the extracted metadata and the rich document to form a render data set; and sending the render data set to a configurable render module that outputs at least one active document.
